This month's theme is racing. Each entry is listed with what inspired it. I encourage you to take the inspiration into account when choosing the best body.

Enjoy!

The Race Inspired Styling of The HPI 1956 Ford F-100 Monster Truck Body Just OOZES RACING with the look of going even when sitting still.
Monster truck car crushing Races is where this BEAST would be seen lined up with the likes of BIGFOOT, GRAVE DIGGER, AND OTHERS.
Line um up boys lets flatten out dome cars and jump a bus or two.
Has been a crowd favorite for many years and many more to come.

[catchin air]

if these guys are amateur then when will you make a class for me

[rookie042]

[zueslilbuddy]

Well my 2 entries are my 1st and 2nd paint jobs with my new airbrush.
And the first time ever I've entered the paint comp.
I'm out classed lol

20 votes but 66 views... lets all take a second and vote. There's even some pretty good descriptions too meet the rules too.

A lot of those views are probalby people checking the results so far.

[mab_man20]

A lot of people come and check back frequently to see the results (guilt as charged!) I like to keep track of how many people have voted in each competition. Ideally the number of votes will be equal in all three, but that is never the case. Right now we are close, with 24, 25 and 26 tallied votes in each competition.
If you havent voted in all three I ask that you go do that now.

[rookie042]

there are deffinatley, some nice paint jobs for amature's glad to see that everyone has such a ambition for painting.

[chestnut007]

What happens if it's a tie?

[desfjr1300]

Is it the polling that determines the winner? If so, and there is a tie, I'd be willing to concede to chestnut007-I couldn't paint straight checkers like that if my life depended on it!

[mab_man20]

If there is a tie, I think both of you deserve something. Ill talk to PaulO.

Desfj1300: Its great to see how humble you are, I like that.

I'm flattered!:p

[FESTER2004]

congrats chestnut!this months voting was tight!everyone should be proud of themselves!all awesome work!

[desfjr1300]

That was fun! I'll have to come up with something better next time. Thank you Mab for continuing the competitions-I'm sure there's a lot of work involved behind the scenes and considering how busy we all are these days I wanted to make sure you knew your efforts are very much appreciated!

Good job everyone and Chestnut007, CONGRATULATIONS on a well deserved win!!!

[chestnut007]

[zueslilbuddy]

Congrats chestnut.

And thank you to all that voted for my body, i didnt expect to do so well on my first contest.

[chestnut007]

My name's not chester!:mad: Lol, I don't care. Thanks again guys! I was just informed by Paul Onorato (senior editor of RCCA) going to have my truggy in the readers rides of RCCA! I didn't think that my body was that great. I personally like rookie042's second body better than mine.
